SUMMARY:Bloom: Mistakes that Made us

What we don’t get to hear is all the times they made mistakes and it turns out – that’s where the real learnings lie. Mistakes that made us is a fun catered event at the UWA Tav where successful entrepreneurs take the stage for 15 minutes each and talk about the mistakes they made in their career and what they learned from it. You will have the opportunity to listen to their journey\, ask them questions and network with other entrepreneurially minded people. This year we will be hearing from: \n\nKate Kirwan – She Codes\nAbhinav Bijavara Nagaraj – Edible Cutlery\nGiles Roberts – Sol Studios\n\nFood is provided with ticket. 18+ ID required.

SUMMARY:ESG Symposium: Building Global Readiness in Early Stage Startups
DESCRIPTION:The global green technology and sustainability market size is projected to grow from 16 billion in 2023 to 61 billion by 2030.  National and international trading standards increasingly require businesses to report on their impact and governance. ESG compliance is now a crucial factor in a start-ups ability to scale. \nHowever\, navigating the world of ESG\, SDGs\, B Corp\, can be complex  and overwhelming\, particularly for start-ups who often have limited resources and capabilities. \nThis symposium is a world-first collaboration of providers which aims to ensure that all WA startups are operating at global standards for economic\, social and governance. Enabling them to be competitive not just nationally; but globally. \nA day of targeted hands-on workshops followed by personalised interaction with industry experts\, this symposium allows stage startups to accelerate growth and success by integrating ESG (Economic\, Social\, Governance) principles into the core of their venture.

SUMMARY:FKUP Nights Perth X Bloom X WASEC: Youth Special
DESCRIPTION:A global movement and series of events where stories of failure are shared. Each month\, at events around the world\, we get three or four people to face a room full of strangers to share their own fuckup. Stories of businesses that go bust\, partner deals that fall out\, products that have to be recalled\, we tell it all.\n\nWhy Fkup Nights? Because with #peakstartup\, a 90% failure rate\, and all the talk of motivation and positivity\, there’s something missing.. talking about failure\, and learning from sharing stories of failure! Free your failures\, Perth will thank you! \nHOW IS IT DONE? \nIn every Fkup Night 3 speakers tell their failure story explaining: \nWhat was the project? \nWhat went wrong? \nWhat did they learn? \nWhat would they do differently? \nJoin Bloom\, WASEC and Fkup Nights Perth for a special youth focused Fkup Night at Bloom Curtin. Get in quick before tickets sell out! \nEach speaker tells their story in 10 images followed by Q&A. At the end of the speakers’ stories\, attendees are welcome to stick around and network over drinks. Previous Fkup Night speakers have varied from social entrepreneurs\, tech founders\, and even a doctor who a few years ago opened an adult shop that went broke. Just so you get an idea\, Fkup Nights is something between a party and a casual business conference 🙂 \nAll proceeds from the night go to a local Social Enterprise. This event supports Hello Initiative.
